Unable to reference native framework
USMember ✭✭
I followed all the instructions but cant seem to get this working.
I need to create bindings for Agora Video Call iOS Sdk.
Here's the steps I tried:
- Download the sdk and unzip: https://download.agora.io/sdk/release/Agora_Native_SDK_for_iOS_v3_0_1_1_FULL.zip?_ga=2.134487925.549327924.1594424861-931662975.1594424861
- Navigate to Agora_Native_SDK_for_iOS_FULL\libs\ALL_ARCHITECTURE
- Run sharpie command: sharpie bind -output Binding -framework ./AgoraRtcKit.framework -sdk iphoneos13.5
- Navigate to Binding and open ApiDefinitions.cs (about 2500 lines)
- Remove all the Verify tags.
- Create new iOS Binding library.
- Copy the content of Binding\ApiDefinitions.cs and Binding\StructsAndEnums.cs to ApiDefinition.cs and Structs.cs
- Add Native Reference -> select Agora_Native_SDK_for_iOS_FULL\libs\ALL_ARCHITECTURE\AgoraRtcKit.framework and click open.
- The compiler doesn't recognize 'AgoraRtcKit' even though it's been added.
I also tried unloading and reloading the project but that didn't help.
Am I missing something here?

I feel stupid ... I figured this out after diving into the real details of sharpie and binding objective-c.
Turns out whatever I did above is correct. It's just a matter of correcting the ApiDefinition.cs.Some stuffs/errors I came across that had to be modified:
Remove unnecessary 'using AgoraRtcKit;' on top.
void* -> IntPtr.
Change delegate method name to reflect the preferred name if there exists another method with same parameters list. Ex:[Export("rtcEngine:didJoinChannel:withUid:elapsed:")] void RtcEngine(AgoraRtcEngineKit engine, string channel, nuint uid, nint elapsed); [Export("rtcEngine:didRejoinChannel:withUid:elapsed:")] void RtcEngine(AgoraRtcEngineKit engine, string channel, nuint uid, nint elapsed); // above changed to [Export("rtcEngine:didJoinChannel:withUid:elapsed:")] void DidJoinChannel(AgoraRtcEngineKit engine, string channel, nuint uid, nint elapsed); [Export("rtcEngine:didRejoinChannel:withUid:elapsed:")] void DidRejoinChannel(AgoraRtcEngineKit engine, string channel, nuint uid, nint elapsed);Any type that seems too whacky or unsure, change to NSObject. The consumer can take care of the parsing/conversion.
Namespace is important. Needs to be matched with the 'library' part of library.framework.
Other minor translation between native and C#.Eventually was able to build and compile this ...
